    Summary

    “So why are you out here? Did old man leave you all alone at party?” Ilya said, grabbing a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and holding them out towards Kip. The other man shook his head, so Ilya took out one for himself. 

    “No, no. I just got a bit overwhelmed myself and stepped out for a minute,” Kip said, facing back towards the night sky. 

    “And it is boring,” Ilya added. 

    Kip laughed. “Yeah. . . The endless stream of old, straight men giving me weird looks doesn’t help.” 

    Ilya barked out a laugh at that. “I cannot imagine. This your first party with NHL, yes? As a couple?” Kip nodded. Ilya took a slow drag of his cigarette. “Now I understand why is overwhelming for you.”

    Summary

    Summary: While Tyrenndor’s First Queen is my guilty pleasure fanfic (which will be continued), it has gotten me thinking about what would happen in the book had Tyrenndor actually gained independence. I’ve concluded that, while most things would remain the same, these things would be different: 1) Tyrenndor would have opened its own rider’s college where all their kids (without their rebel marks) would have gone and 2) Lillith would not have sent Violet into the Rider’s Quadrant if she didn’t have Xaden to protect her kid. Which means Violet would have gone into the Scribe’s Quadrant and her mother probably would have let slip that Violet’s father was studying feathertails before his passing, making Violet investigate them herself and keeping her safely inside the wards. But we all know that a certain feathertail would have been quite ready to allow Violet the ability to study her. Which starts a slippery road that leaves Violet still bonded to both dragons and with Xaden’s ring on her finger. Think of this fic as Tyrenndor’s First Queen if I took it seriously.
